Online Backgammon Etiquette

In Response To: Online Backgammon Etiquette (David Startin)

In a live game, when your opponent shuffles the checkers endlessly (often when he has a lot of choices with a doublet), you have to concentrate to remember the beginning position.

At least when you play online, you do not have to remember the beginning position while your opponent shuffles endlessly. Some online sites do have clocks. I wish GridGammon would add a clock. I would love it if GridGammon would give the average speed per game of all the players in the WHO IS.

Also, unless playing in a tournament, you do not have to play the same etiquette-challenged opponent again. Remember which opponents annoy you and don't play them again.

Some of my opponents remember how lucky I always am and therefore refuse to play me again.
